About the 3D Flower Stitch

The 3D Flower Stitch creates raised floral motifs that sit slightly above the surface of the fabric. Unlike flat textured stitches, this one adds true dimension, making it a standout section in your blanket.

Why you’ll love this stitch:

• 🌸 Gorgeous raised flower detail
• 🧶 Adds fun dimension and texture
• ✨ A beautiful focal-point section
• 💕 Perfect for a garden-themed blanket

It’s one of those stitches that makes people stop and say, “Wait… how did you do that?!”

Scrapghan Tips

· This blanket will use different hook sizes depending on the stitch. Some stitches work up tighter than others. Even with changing hook sizes, the blanket will not have completely straight edges.

· Feel free to adjust your hook size according to how you crochet.

· This blanket requires a foundation row that is a multiple of 24 + 2.

· The starting chain requirement for this particular stitch is given in the pattern notes (this may or may not match what was used for the entire blanket). This is just a note given for use of this stitch in other projects, not for this blanket.

· Each part starts over at row 1 of that stitch. Be sure to place a stitch marker and the last stitch of each part to mark where the next part begins.
